The author of the book "The Book of the Dead"

Chapter 176: The Beginning of the Fourth World, Land Gods

The white clouds transformed into a two-wheeled bronze and white jade chariot and gradually sank to the bottom of the sea.

In the imperial hometown, behind the Bodhi tree, stands the Yin-Yang stone.

The old Liang Yue, holding the bottle containing the blood of the gods, slowly walked towards Lihentian.

The journey is slow, and a new life begins.

Death is a serious matter. Liang Yue knows that he will be resurrected eventually, so he inevitably feels a little heavy in his heart.

Wow!
The cave opens up, and one arrives at a gloomy underground castle, where eight thousand terracotta warriors and horses guard the place of eternal peace.

There is a nine-story platform where the golden coffin is placed.

Below the high platform is Yingtai's coffin.

This is Liang Yue’s private land, no one is allowed to come in.

Walk to the coffin and touch the cold bluestone patterns.

"I'm going to die again, Yingtai."

What happened back then is still vivid in my mind.

Even after experiencing a short second life and a long third life, Liang Yue was still trapped in his first life of just eighty years.

Perhaps at that time I was the mortal Liang Yue, not a divine spirit treasure.

While thinking, Liang Yue found himself lying in the coffin without realizing it.

"This is the third life, with a life score of 150 and a sleep time of 150 years. The fourth life requires a life score of 180 and a sleep time of 180 years."

The lifespan of the two lives is exactly the same as the sleeping time. It seems that you live as long as you die.

But not necessarily.

The ancients were not rigid. The corpse-reincarnating immortals also had methods to shorten their lifespan and sleep time, but he just hadn't encountered them.

The previous three-eyed magical power was a different way of shortening time.

"Die, die, no more delay."

Using his spiritual sense again to sense whether his Qi reserves were sufficient, Liang Yue opened the bottle containing the blood of the Sun, Moon and Celestial Beings, took a breath of Qi and swallowed the blood.

boom!
The burning energy exploded in the body, turning the whole body red, and the energy continued to destroy every bit of flesh, internal organs, skin, and bones.

At the same time, the soul felt extremely cold, a cold that could even freeze the mind, causing the thinking ability to decline rapidly.

"For alien races, this cup of blood is poison. No wonder no one has succeeded in fusing high-level blood. Even if they succeed, they will die from the powerful side effects."

However, for Liang Yue, death is not a big deal; the only thing he is afraid of is dying at the wrong time.

Soon, Liang Yue successfully digested the blood and his body was no longer in human form.

“Let’s go!!”

Rebirth from corpse, refining the body through Taiyin.

The plump white cocoon emitted bright white light, which formed a huge translucent cocoon that enveloped Liang Yue's body.

The soul leaped out of the body and headed towards the mysterious and wonderful chaotic primordial void.

The light gradually faded.

The cloud car sank to the bottom of the sea, and under its own powerful weight, it smashed into the seabed more than ten feet deep.

Outside Lihentian, Huodou and Xuanwu each prepared fasting pills for more than a hundred years.

Liang Yue's alchemy skills became more and more skilled. One fasting pill could resist hunger and cold for a year.

Inside the tiny cave of mysterious ice that has existed for thousands of years, everyone seemed to have stopped in time, waiting to be revived.

Baiyun Imperial City returned to peace and was about to move away from the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

The final conclusion.

The story of Tongtian Taoist has come to an end.

The cloud chariot sank into the sea, and the Taoist priest refined his body.

Another few years have passed.

In the third year of Tianbao (758), the third generation Liang Yue was years old.

After one hundred and fifty years of body refinement, the fourth life is about to begin.

The next life begins - 908.

……

When there is no wind in the sea, the waves are peaceful.

In Mochoufang, the storytellers are eloquent.

"It is said that during the Taiyuan period of the Jin Dynasty, there was an unknown person in Shanyin, Kuaiji..."

The storyteller had finally run out of ideas, so he told the story he had heard from the old man that day.

The storyteller industry is one that undergoes frequent iterations. If one fails to keep up with the trends and does not meet the tastes of the audience, gradually no one will be willing to pay him to tell stories, and no one will give him tips.

"Wuming is gifted with extraordinary talent and possesses unique immortal skills. He once enlightened Liu Yu of Liu Song..."

The story was like a chronicle, so dull and boring that the audience could no longer bear it.

"Go down! Go down! What about keeping a journal?"

"It's long and boring, it's all nonsense, at least it has a name."

The storyteller was kicked out.

In Daming Palace, the new emperor Li Heng ascended the throne.

"Emperor Gaozu and Emperor Chengzong wandered around Taixu at night? Can I do the same in the future?" The middle-aged emperor was somewhat expectant.

Our ancestors would not lie to us. If we were a wise ruler, we might have the opportunity to travel through the universe and enjoy immortality.

……

The Holy Fire Persian Kingdom, a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty, Zhide City (formerly known as Yazhide).

In the Fire God Temple, a sacred fire has been burning on a central disk for hundreds of years without being extinguished. This fire is red with gold and has incredible power to strengthen the body.

Anyone who sees this fire will involuntarily feel admiration.

An old man looked up at the starry sky alone, waiting for the arrival of the legendary God of Fire.

He defeated the White Caliphate, resisted the Black Caliphate, and conquered the former Persian territory. All this was just to gain the approval of the gods.

……

Penglai Island.

The Liang family held a grand family sacrificial ceremony. After the ceremony, the king told the new prince.

"Remember, whether now or in the distant future, if someone appears with this sword, mask, and jade, he will be our ancestor, and the Liang family must be loyal to him forever."

Liang Yue has visited Tianxiahui, Cangjian Villa, the Imperial Observatory, and even the distant Venice in the west.

Unfortunately, these people will never be able to wait for the person of their dreams in this lifetime.

Talented people emerge in every generation, and each of them leads the trend for hundreds of years. The tide of history surges forward, taking away the past and the people of the present.

……

At the head of Xunyang River, the new generation of Xiaoyao School's descendants ride donkeys, travel around the mountains and rivers, and record history.

Tired from the journey, he sat down by the river to rest while his donkey was drinking water.

"What a beautiful scenery." The young man took a big gulp of cold water.

This person was not a famous hermit, nor was he a well-known figure, or a civil or military official who made history.

An ordinary traveler may not leave his name.

I don’t seek eternal fame or lasting hegemony.

He did what he wanted to do, traveled around, and lived a carefree life.

In this age of the Dharma Ending Age, there are also people with extraordinary and otherworldly minds.

He listened to the sound of the river all night.

Years pass and time flies.

The descendants get married, start a family, grow old, die, and are buried.

A lifetime of struggle, a century of fame. The dynasty's hegemony, history is a cloud of smoke.

Like the water of the Yangtze River, it flows forever.

In the blink of an eye, one hundred and fifty years passed.

In the Heaven of Lihen.

Things remain unchanged for thousands of years, the jade silkworm breaks open and the chrysalis turns into a butterfly.

A butterfly fluttered around the intact young body.

The young body was flawless, the skin was as white as jade, there was a fine line of pure gold between the eyebrows like an eye, and there were sun and moon patterns on both sides.

Wow!
Liang Yue opened his eyes, his left eye was the sun and his right eye was the moon, emitting the mysterious light of the sun and the moon.

Wow!
Liang Yue stood up suddenly.

After taking a pill, his mind sensed the heaven and earth, absorbing the tiny essence of the sun and the moon that was everywhere in the void.

Now, the essence of the sun and the moon and the power of the elixir form a special essence.

These essences do not have spiritual energy as their root. They are pure natural energy and cannot be used for spiritual practice.

The jade silkworm absorbs and exhales this essence, transforming it into the purest true qi.

He opened the coffin and his figure floated in the air. He spread out his left and right palms, with a pure golden flame rising from his left hand and a mysterious light of ice and soul appearing from his right hand.

Resurrected in the fourth life, this time, because of his innate physique, he did not need to spend time practicing.

"Eating clouds and gathering qi, the essence of the sun and the moon, in this life, I can be considered a land immortal."

Three thousand white cranes came to the singing banquet, and after achieving their goal, they became earth-walking immortals.

To put it simply, internal force can be retired. You can learn it or not. Liang Yue can transform sunlight and moonlight into true energy.

The jade silkworm could originally only transform internal energy similar to true qi, which is transformed from the vitality of the human body. Now it has the physique of the sun and moon celestial beings and can absorb the omnipresent sun and moon essence.

“Is this photosynthesis?”

Liang Yue closed his eyes and felt the changes in the essence of life.

The perfect fusion of Kuafu's bloodline and the sun, moon and heaven, this resurrection has a different feeling.

In the dim Lihentian, Liang Yue sat on the edge of the coffin.

After a while, pure golden light shone in all directions, and Lihentian seemed to have entered daytime.

It turned out that a golden light jumped out from above his head.

The golden light transformed into a Dharma image that was eight feet tall.

The Dharmadhatu is suspended in the air, high above, dominating the Baiyun Imperial Township.

His appearance is not much different from himself, his body is light gold, crystal clear, without any black and white patterns, and he is eight feet tall.

The Dharma image is solemn and majestic, and the divine power is awe-inspiring.

There are circles of light behind the head, some are in the shape of clouds, some are in the shape of thunder, there are also sunlight, moonlight, red, three different types of flames, and a golden halo with eye patterns.

Nine halos, nine magical powers.

The colorful divine light filled the cave, illuminating the body and making the terracotta figurines seem to come back to life.

The Dharma body is eternal and indestructible, and in the void there is a faint sound of huge bells and Dalü.

Originally it was a ghost god, now it is a Yin god.

This is the fifth level of the Corpse Reincarnation Immortal—the Yin Spirit.

The Yin God has supernatural powers and a halo, and his Dharma appearance is manifested in a miraculous way.

Originally, the soul was just the size of a normal human being and could not escape the shackles of the physical body.

Today's spirit has manifested supernatural powers and is gigantic in size. It can move freely under the sun and the moon, go to heaven and into the earth, and walk through fire and water. It is omnipotent.

Liang Yue closed his eyes and felt the changes inside and outside.

Whether it is the soul or the body, they have begun to gradually break away from the mortal body and move towards a higher level of life.

In ancient times, he could be called a "true man", "supreme man" or "divine man".

Wow!
The cloud car rose into the sky, jumped out of the waves, and turned into a thousand-foot-high white cloud.

Above the white clouds, the god stands.

His body is as huge as a tower, and his soul is walking on auspicious clouds.

The three-eyed Dharma Eye sweeps the world, and the nine-layered round light calms the soul.

A bit of true yang turns into yin, and the spirit and soul travel through the mountains and rivers like the sun and the moon.

"Live forever, be a land immortal!"
